It isn't catalyst's job to fix breakages. In fact, we highly recommend |
| 14 |
against *touching* any of the catalyst caches. Using them to *look* is |
| 15 |
one thing, touching is a definite no-no. You don't need to chroot to |
| 16 |
look. This isn't something I would likely implement, mostly because I |
| 17 |
know how to use "chroot" and secondly because of the above stated |
| 18 |
reason. |

Also, don't email me directly regarding catalyst. This list is the best |
| 21 |
place to discuss catalyst as well as get help. I prefer all |
| 22 |
catalyst-related mails go here so they're archived and also so we can |
| 23 |
foster some discussion, rather than keep things in private. |
